Argos Has Recalled Cuggl Stairgates After They Failed Safety Tests 1

Firefighters have rescued a toddler aged two from an Argos stairgate by bending apart the bars less than a week after Argos issued an urgent recall.

The young girl got trapped in the Argos own brand Cuggl stairgate in Bristol yesterday. The todllers mother was on her way to take the recalled stairgate back to Argos.

The firefighters said they had to use “muscle power” to bend the bars apart which were too far apart. This incident happened five days after the recall of 7 gates issued last Thursday.

Argos had identified the potential safety problem with the stairgates, finding that the brackets or wooden slats break under high impact.

The retailer has also discovered that the auto-close feature failed and that the gaps between the bars are wider than the required safety standards.

A Which? investigation also listed the Cuggl stairgates as “Don’t Buys because they failed essential safety tests that are part of European Union safety standards.

Thankfully Argos has no removed these Cuggl stairgates from sale and have now carried out intensive independent testing of its entire Cuggl stairgate range which has now exposed that seven of the stairgate range have failed and now have been recalled.

Argos has asked that anyone that has one of the seven recalled Cuggl stairgates to stop using them immediately and return it to the store for a full refund whether you have a receipt or not.
